The Armenian government has already turned to Russia, the Collective Security Treaty Organization (CSTO) and the UN Security Council in connection with the clashes on the border with Azerbaijan, an official with the press service of the Cabinet said.

"The government has already appealed to Russia, the CSTO and the UN Security Council in connection with Azerbaijan's encroachment on the country's sovereign territory," the press service said.

The Security Council of Armenia decided to turn to Russia for help to implement the provisions of the Treaty of Friendship, Cooperation and Mutual Assistance in connection with the aggravation on the Armenian-Azerbaijani border, the press service of the Cabinet of Ministers of Armenia reported.

"A decision has been made to formally appeal to the Russian Federation in order to implement the provisions of the Treaty of Friendship, Cooperation and Mutual Assistance. There will also be an appeal to the Collective Security Treaty Organization and the UN Security Council," the Cabinet announced.

Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan has convened an emergency security council meeting early on Tuesday. Earlier, Pashinyan also had a telephone conversation with U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken.

During all the international telephone conversations, representatives of Armenia accused Azerbaijan of attacking Armenian territory. The authorities' coordination and efficiency of the actions, which are usually slow to make decisions even in emergency situations, speaks of a pre-prepared plan.
